A Kenmore washer shares most of its basic parts with other washers, but its drive design, lid or door lock, controls and error codes are specific to the brand. Below are independent repair companies serving Shaker Heights, with those that mention Kenmore first, then the nearest appliance repair companies.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with Kenmore, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.
With a Kenmore washer, the model number matters more than the badge: it tells a technician exactly which parts and repair steps apply. Find it on the label before you call.
